A Permanent Solution to Missing Teeth
What Are Your Dental Implant Options?
Regardless of the type, dental implants are made up of three components. These include a post implanted directly into your jawbone (providing support for the implant), an abutment that links the post to the restoration, and the final restoration. NuArch by Dr. Sal provides numerous types of dental implants, including:
Single Dental Implants
From teeth cleanings to x-rays and oral cancer screenings we’re the hub for all your preventive dentistry care. Each visit will be tailored to your unique needs while always offering the highest level of care. Routine visits should be maintained twice a year in order to catch early signs of dental decay and disease and prevent them altogether.
Zirconia Fixed Bridges
Zirconia fixed bridges last longer than traditional bridges. Because they’re placed directly into your jaw, they don’t require healthy teeth to be adjacent to the implant site, and because they’re made of zirconia, they’re much stronger and more stable than traditional dental bridges.
Implant Supported Dentures
If you already wear dentures, you may want to consider upgrading to implant supported dentures instead. These teeth replacements attach to permanent implants in your jaw, increasing your bite strength and providing more stimulation to preserve the health of your jawbone.
Full Mouth Dental Implants
For replacing a full arch of teeth, we recommend full mouth dental implants. These teeth replacements, also called All-on-X dental implants, attach to several titanium posts that are implanted into your jaw or zygomatic bone. With proper care, they can last a lifetime!

Experience Makes a Difference
Dr. Selim Alptekin has more than 2 decades of experience with dental implant surgery and sedation dentistry in Ashland, MA, and he is committed to keeping up with developments in the field to provide his patients with top-notch care. In Puerto Rico, he studied under the renowned Dr. Tatum.
He uses the Fotona LightWalker™ laser for all dental implant surgeries, which reduces your pain level and healing time. It also reduces bleeding and provides greater precision during your surgery.

The Dental Implant Process
Step 1: Initial Consultation
NuArch by Dr. Sal provides customized, individual care for each of our patients. Starting with your initial office tour and consultation, we’ll discuss your dental health goals and take detailed scans of your mouth. At your consultation, Dr. Altepkin will determine whether you need bone grafting or tooth extractions in the process of getting your dental implants. The next step involves creating your custom surgical guide: our in our in-house dental laboratory with 3D printing, allows you to have your dental implant surgery more quickly.
Step 2: Your Dental Implant Surgery
During surgery, you’ll be sedated. Dr. Alptekin is licensed to administer IV sedation in his practice as well as oral and local sedatives, so you can pass your time in the chair painlessly. Dental implant surgery can take a few hours, depending on the number and type of implants you’re getting, but you’ll walk away from your surgery with a temporary set of PMMA restorations.
Step 3: After Your Surgery
During surgery, you’ll be sedated. Dr. Altepkin is licensed to administer IV sedation in his practice as well as oral and local sedatives, so you can pass your time in the chair painlessly. Dental implant surgery can take a few hours, depending on the number and type of implants you’re getting, but you’ll walk away from your surgery with a temporary set of PMMA restorations.
The Long-Term Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants provide a huge number of advantages when compared with other tooth replacements (such as traditional dentures or bridges). Because they’re permanently implanted in your bones, they act like artificial tooth roots and provide stimulation to keep your jawbone healthy. They’re permanently fixed, restoring up to 99% of your biting and chewing power. Dental implants also don’t require nearby healthy teeth because they attach directly to your jaw. Dr. Sal can even provide zygomatic dental implants if you have extreme bone loss in your jaw, meaning that even if you were previously told you aren’t a candidate for dental implants, you can come to him for a free second opinion.
